Obama-rama

To quote Professor Farnsworth (at least in part): "Good news, everybody! Hilary Clinton has received some very bad news!"
Yes, last week, John Edwards, the working-people's millionaire, officially endorsed Barack Obama in the Democratic primary race. I was somewhat impressed by Edwards when he was campaigning for someone else to win the nomination (a certain John Edwards), even though the rest of the US appeared not to be.
An Edwards presidency was not to be, but his hold-out and eventual endorsement now raises the tantalising possibility of...an Obama/Edwards ticket - now that would be exciting (in the same way that, I don't know, combining red and white wine in the same glass is exciting)!
It's expected that the democratic nomination will be all but wrapped up by tomorrow, so when you read this blog, Mr Obama, consider this advice: like Clinton, Edwards is white and also aspires to to have an affinity with the working class, but he's got something that Clinton doesn't have: a penis!(1)
And if there's something American voters like, it's penises.
John Edwards could be that penis.
As for Mr and Mrs Clinton (I'm not really sure which is which any more), they put up a good (and dirty) fight, and Hilary would have been an equally historic president, but they should really now just accept defeat graciously, and instead focus their energies on the next stage of their dynastic succession: Chelsea!
By the time she's ready to assume the position, it's possible that America's penis-fixation may have waned enough that they will be prepared to vote for her vajayjay...
We can dare to dream.

(1) Note: Clinton may have a penis.
